Viral Fever

Viral Fever

the crowd is growing thinner
and thinner on roads and in
temples, rather they have now
found a new passion
for the medicals

their skin is burning with
extreme temperatures. a
temperature only found
after July’s rain

and through the penetrable walls
of the home, their deadly cough
can be distinguished
which is squeezing the life
out of the orange lungs
bit by bit

it is the viral fever that has
taken a toll on the chests of
people of influence and people
at disposal

once a person is infected,
the entire family falls prey
to it

even though the virus is
temporary in nature,
it flings open the gate to the
other side of the world,
the world from where no one
returns

and it will come, and take what
it wants before our eyes and we
would do nothing to stop it and
whatever we do, will not stop it
from having what it wants

thus, sacrifices must be made
when it is time and forget the
ending if we have to, to live
and to survive…

Stay with
Prerna 🙂
